**** I tried to send this about 5 minutes ago and my system locked up... If it made it, sorry for the duplication ***
Hello there, I just setup my linux system last night and finished the generic install. I have a few questions on things that didn't work as I expected. I hope this is the right place to ask. Ok, my system is a pent 166 w/32MB RAM and two hard drives I found laying around (1.6GB, 2.0GB). I created a root partition of 60MB, /usr of 1000MB /var 360MB /home 1915MB I hope this is about correct. Anyways, My two questions / problems are: #1 I was not able to install my CD drive. I have a Wearnes 8X CD drive (IDE connection and a cheap sound card.) I found one selection on the driver disk for "Wearnes" and some other drives, but it failed on installation. I did not type in any parameters because I didn't know what it wanted. #2 I tried to use the FTP option in dselect and it comes up with the following error message: Net::FTP: Bad peer address at /usr/lib/perl5/Net/FTP.pm line 405 FTP ERROR I was able to connect to ftp.debian.org via ftp from the shell. Any idea what is wrong with this? Ideally, I would like to get this working using the ftp option. If I can't, what is the proper method of loading and installing packages.
